Great to see footage of the new C-27 Spartan on the news tonight. Great new aerial asset for our country and this region.

Such a impressive little airlifter! I'll never forget watching the incredible aerobatics this machine was able to do (of course with the company test pilot at the controls!) at Avalon. It was a great demonstration of the power, agility and strength of this bird.

A mate of mine got some great pics when it was in TSV a few days ago but can't show them yet :(

Excellent. Now I can make a start on one of the Italeri ones I have in the stash with the RAAF markings of course! ;) :) Then I might do one of the more exotic European ones with the other kit.
